It is also funny to me that this is the picture he would choose…like…he sees this and thinks he looks cool. He really is the calibre of villain who would be in a movie where the main character is a dog.
During the Italian fascist period, it was used as the political headquarters of Benito Mussolini, and was adorned with a giant sculpture of the dictator’s face surrounded by the word “SI” (Italian for "YES”).

Also present is the mysterious leader Big Brother, who has an intense cult of personality. The Party brutally purges anyone who does not fully conform to their regime, using the Thought Police and constant surveillance through telescreens (two-way televisions), cameras and hidden microphones. Those who fall out of favour with the Party become “unpersons”, disappearing per damnatio memoriae with all evidence of their existence destroyed.

Here is one from a candidate to the Paris mayor office:
Even in France we have our wannabe fascists as well.
How any Republican can’t see this is beyond me.
They see it and they love it
Plastering the face of the person routinely denying people justice on the front of the department of Justice.
You couldn’t cut through the irony with a case of dynamite and a rock drill.
The parallels are genuinely disturbing. It’s further disturbing how many Americans are just cool with it.
Not just cool with it, thrilled. Giddy.
They’re angry that they’re too dumb to participate in modern society.
They’re “Ogre” from Revenge of the Nerds.
It looks like it says “Make America Hate Again” which yeah does seem like their agenda.
Donald should avoid gas stations.
It is entirely possible that he has never been to a gas station.
I’m sorry to take your innocence away:
I’m honestly surprised he ever bothered to learn to drive. He’s always been such a lazy piece of shit.
I couldn’t picture him driving much less owning a car, but someone sent this to me in response to saying so online.
I mean, he dragged a camera person with him. The whole thing could be a photo op and with rented Lamborghini.
Still odd to think about.
Ok of all the Hitler comparisons you could make, is putting a picture of yourself up on a wall really THAT damning?
Cult of personality shit is generally pretty damning when it reaches the point where the government itself is engaging in it at the behest of the cult leader, yes.
If you ignore the entire context and the actual text. This is not just “putting a picture of yourself up on a wall”, and that is quite the disingenous way of describing it.
“Hitler/Trump was just a guy that wanted to protect his country”
I love that your comment is getting downvoted with 0 replies addressing what you highlighted here. There’s a flood of memes pinpointing much more serious similarities (ice/gestapo, fake news/Lügenpress, etc.) but now we are so in love with our passive resentment of the situation that we’re pretending both leaders having a face is indicative of sameness
What a fucking dumb shit take this is. No one should be hanging their face on the department of justice, indicating who that department does justice for.
Yeah this isn’t as severe as the other shit he’s doing but ITS STILL INDICATIVE HE WANTS TO BE LIKE HITLER. HE WANTS THE FASCIST TAKEOVER. HE WANTS TO BE KING AND HE KEEPS DOING FUCKED UP SHIT TO VARYING DEGREES
AM I TAKING TO A BOT? what the fucking ACTUAL FUCK is wrong with you pedantic Reddit-ass libs my god people like you are the REASON we are in this mess.
Life is hard. Blocking pedantic little penis wrinkles is easy.
Classy stuff, chief lol
I voted for hillary and kamela (couldn’t risk Biden vote as such would obvs lead to Trump 2024–us politics is horribly predictable so maybe am part of the problem tho)
I hope you find peace😊
It’s actually a surprisingly accurate indicator of a fascist takeover. People who want to be dictators want to see their face on a wall I guess.
ahh, I see this is why my art teacher was clearly a hitlerite for having so many self-portraits in her office
I would only get concerned when she starts putting them up on the front of government buildings
what universe am I in now, then? Schools ARE government buildings on my planet lol
